This review is from: Sex and Diabetes: For Him and For Her (Paperback)

Very good resource. My wife is diabetic and I thought the book could help improve our love life. My wife is also a Diatician and Diabetes Educator so a lot of the info was already known. But I would recommend this book as an excellent initial resource diabetics need help with their love life

5.0 out of 5 stars An important acquisition for any health library or general-interest collection., February 6, 2008

Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sex and Diabetes: For Him and For Her (Paperback)

Most diabetes books only include a chapter on changed sex concerns, but diabetes complicates and strains relationships, posing new issues and problems. This book addresses all the issues, providing tips ranging from how to talk to a doctor about sexual complications of diabetes and drug treatments to control it to common physical and emotional complications for both men and women. From how losing weight and exercising affects sexuality to using music, movies, and even romantic foods to set new paths for intimacy, SEX AND DIABETES is an important acquisition for any health library or general-interest collection.
